Warning: This book is truly scary! It is also a spectacular work of art. Two children, "double-dog-dared" by older boys to dig for buried treasure in a graveyard, get far more than they bargained for when they disturb a pirate ghost. Dead Ed and his ghoulish cohorts explode from the earth, prepared to haunt the living daylights out of anyone with the audacity to bother them. The slyly funny rhyming text and page-by-page emphasis on letters of the alphabet are compelling enough all on their own, but the real draw of this unearthly anecdote is the stunning artwork. Robin Brickman cut, painted, sculpted, and glued together pieces of watercolor paper to create a remarkable illusion of dimension and perspective. Readers will want to spend hours exploring each page, searching for the foot, feather, frog, flame, and fungi on the F page, or the watch, whiskers, whistle, worms, and weevil on the W page. But mostly, they'll want this book around for late-night ghost-story sessions. Get ready to shiver and scream! (Ages 6 to 10) --Emilie Coulter
